Meeting Rooms

Unless a particular space is reserved by the library staff, all meeting space at the library is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Due to the need for materials located in our meeting spaces to be available to patrons at all times, it is not possible hold a private gatherings in our upstairs meeting space. For information about available meeting space in the library, please call the library at 641.782.2277.

Currently, the library takes reservations for our upstairs genealogy room and our upstairs reading room area. There are two spaces for reservation on our ground floor that are semi-private meeting spaces. There is one meeting room area with a table, six chairs, and a white board. The second semi-private space is a study space outfitted with a desk and a chair ideal for studying.
